Emergency Preparedness & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district has publicly documented gaps in emergency preparedness, including notification reliability failures, incident coordination breakdowns, and EOP governance deficiencies exposed during a recent campus threat. Compliance mandates require active EOP maintenance, safety audits, and a current active threat annex, while a fragmented multi-platform communications environment further undermines reliable notification.
The opportunity
A voter-approved $150M bond and a $5.63M security budget allocation provide clear, accessible funding to address these gaps within the current fiscal cycle. Acting now reduces compliance and operational risk, strengthens campus safety outcomes for students and staff, and aligns with cooperative procurement pathways that streamline acquisition.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district operates a fragmented security environment with multiple identity and endpoint tools alongside a Google-centric infrastructure, creating compliance gaps and consolidation risk. Active mandates require annual cybersecurity training and government-entity certification, and a recent intruder detection audit signals unresolved security vulnerabilities affecting staff and students.
The opportunity
The Texas K-12 Cybersecurity Initiative grant and a voter-approved $150M bond create a rare convergence of funding to address these gaps now. With over $800K in annual IT and data processing spend already in motion, consolidating the security ecosystem this fiscal cycle reduces compliance exposure and strengthens district-wide resilience.

Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district carries active mandates for WCAG 2.1/2.0 Level AA and ADA compliance across public-facing digital portals, with no confirmed solution currently in place. This greenfield gap exposes the district to legal and compliance risk while limiting equitable access to digital services for students, families, and staff.
The opportunity
A digital ticketing contract expiring within 18 months creates a near-term procurement window to address accessibility requirements alongside service modernization. The Interactive Online Learning Grant may offer supplemental funding, and action now aligns with the upcoming fiscal planning cycle.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety & Transportation Technology Modernization
Fleet Safety · Student Transportation
High Priority
About this project
Following a school bus crash involving students, the district faces heightened public scrutiny and is actively evaluating bus surveillance cameras, telematics, and fleet replacement. With a $6.28M annual transportation budget and existing student tracking infrastructure, the gap between current capabilities and modern fleet safety standards presents measurable operational and reputational risk.
The opportunity
A voter-approved $150M bond and dedicated transportation budget create a strong, near-term funding pathway for fleet safety upgrades. Acting within the current planning cycle allows the district to reduce incident liability, strengthen student safety outcomes, and align procurement through established cooperative purchasing agreements.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district's fragmented identity and endpoint environment—spanning multiple overlapping platforms within a Google-centric ecosystem—creates security gaps and operational inefficiency. Active compliance mandates for annual cybersecurity training and government-entity certification add urgency to closing these control gaps before the next audit cycle.
The opportunity
The district's IT & Cybersecurity Modernization initiative and an $813K data processing budget create a clear funding pathway, with the Texas K-12 Cybersecurity Initiative grant potentially offsetting consolidation costs. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces compliance exposure and strengthens district-wide security posture for staff and students.
